I'm looking for a laptop replacement for an Air for my wife. She's resigning her job at an elementary school so that she can finish her degree this semester. She'll be student teaching. That means giving back her job-issued Air (which is a mid-2015 model)

What I'd like to know is if anyone can recommend something comparable or better to the BB deal, or even the 2015 Air that she has, especially in the 2 in 1 market, but straight laptops as well. (She says she's very used to the Mac OS, but if I could get the price below $600, saving money is a priority for both of us. She'd likely kill me if she even knew that I was looking at the Air.)

Specs priority:

1. Size/weight/thickness that is at least equal to the Air (the smaller the better, obviously, except in screen size -- 13" preferred, no less)
2. CPU power that'll yield similar results
3. Preferably 256 GB (or more) SSD. One reason why I hesitate even at $800 for the BB deal is that 128GB.
4. I think she'd like a 360 degree foldable 2 in 1. Just might make up for the fact that it's not a Macbook Air.

I've looked and looked, and at this point I'm going around in circles! Someone who is a bit more informed might be able to give me some better advice than I'm getting from reading every website on the internet. Thank you!
